we better not draft a pitcher first pick...And we have taken HS players back to back the past 2 years....I would like to see us take a college level bat who can maybe see the majors in 2015.

not sure if this is spam or not :eyebrow:

Right now, the Mets need to draft the best player available. Every team should always do that, but the Mets NEED to for the next few years. The FA market is getting ridiculous and prospects are going to jump in value.

Mets Picking 11th in the 2013 Draft

Yeah, you do not draft to fill the need of the MLB team. If the best available player is a pitcher, then draft him.

You can never have too much pitching. Teams are looking for pitching and are willing to trade for it if they don't have it.

The Mets are probably a top 5 farm system with just their pitching, at least from my perspective. Their position prospect are either 3-4 years away or have serious holes in their games. Aside from d'Arnaud.
